Nothing is worth your time when you put ego first, and focus on saving face and being boorish after being called out on a bunch of half baked ideas. I even quoted something that I expected would grease the wheels of reason:
> "It is believed that at least one incident occurred while a parent was running on the treadmill, suggesting that the hazard cannot be avoided simply by locking the device when not in use," the CPSC said.
A child lock or quick reaction are not enough despite your insistence. Any kind of engineering background, or maybe just common sense, would tell you this. You even accidentally figured it out by noting that a treadmill could hurt an adult if they stepped on it at full tilt. This machine and many others have none of the safety mechanisms and failsafes that needed to make them safe enough to use in a home. They're just made to look pretty and save a buck, so they will kill or injure adults, children, or pets just the same.
Omitting essential safety measures and replacing them with a disclaimer is the hallmark of incompetent engineers. Like replacing the protection in a bathroom outlet with a disclaimer "don't use around water".
I tried taking the best possible interpretation but your comments don't show evidence that you have anything really pertinent to say on the topic, just opinions and guesses that don't stand up to reality. Might be worth it to take your time and understand what I'm saying and that way maybe you'll get something useful out of this conversation.
